FACULTY SPOTLIGHT!!

Gillian Lopez (Oboe, Bassoon, and Chamber Music) led a highly successful residency at Oklahoma City University last month. 🌟

It was a packed weekend which included intensive lessons for OKCU students, specialized repair and reed-making sessions, performance masterclasses, and a faculty recital. The event was a big hit with approximately 60 middle and high school students in attendance!

We’re so proud of the impact our music faculty are making on and off campus to mentor our next generation of musicians! 👏✨

Rosalind Phillips Vocal Competition

Sunday, November 16
3:00 PM Ruth Taylor Recital Hall
Free and open to the public

The annual Rosalind Phillips Vocal Competition for Trinity student singers was established in honor of Professor Emerita Rosalind Phillips, who passed away in 2009. In 1961 Miss Phillips joined the music faculty at Trinity University where she taught voice until her retirement in 1989. Her commitment to assisting young singers in developing their craft stretched far beyond outstanding vocal technique.
